Imagine you can send photos of the kids to a lcd digital photo frame a thousand miles away in their grand-parents’ home.
It’s totally possible!
Ceiva, a manufacturer of digital picture frames, has a novel way of distribute photos between any number of their frames located in different frames.
It’s really quite simple. You set up an account with their central photo gallery service called PicturePlan. You load up some photos to the service via the Internet. Each Ceirva digital photo frame is equipped with either a modem or a wireless Internet service that can connect to the PicturePlan server and download your photos to the frame, and display it.
So, if you have a Ceirva digital photo frame across the street, or halfway across the world, you can load up photos and have them displayed on the frame the next day.
The Ceirva frame checks for new photos at midnight each day, so they can wake up to new photos each morning. Wow! Won’t Grandma just love to see new photos of the kids each morning!
The good thing is that she doesn’t have to do anything to get the photos – just set it up once, and it runs automatically.
The cost of joining the PicturePlan service is quite steep – R9.95 per month – but how many pics can you share without a computer for that price?
You can also use the Ceirvo photo frame as a regular digital photo frame, since it has a memory card slot as well.
Ceirvo has two frame models. The one has wireless built-in, so you can share and upload pics in other ways than through PicturePlan as well. The other has only a built-in modem.
If you’d like to do more with your digital photo frame than simply display photographs, then the Ceiva frames are well worth considering.
